Slipknot's Corey Taylor lands cameo in Sharknado 4

When he's not sporting a malevolent mask on stage, penning another book or picking fights with WWE wrestlers at Californian festivals, Slipknot's Corey Taylor is pursuing his other artistic interests, specifically acting.

Slated to appear in the upcoming film adaptation of comic 'Officer Downe' - directed by Slipknot band mate M. Shawn 'Clown' Crahan - Taylor has also revealed another, unexpected, acting role.

The Slipknot frontman will soon appear in the next instalment of the franchise that won't die, Sharknado. Entitled 'Sharknado 4: The 4th Awakens', Taylor told Loudwire of his new acting endeavour recently.

"I shot a weird cameo in Sharknado 4. The thing is, I don't even get [eaten] by a shark. I run in, I'm a security guard, it's funny," he said.
